What a lovely chef girl:)I'm italian and I should say my preferred dish is pasta or pizza but one of the things I love the most is : gratin potatoes with a lot of pieces of baked ham and a LOT of mozzarella:)

Hi Vanessa, I'm happy to be a part of your contest. I love your Chef girl, My comfort food would be fresh baked breads (any kind) with butter, I love thin slices of cheese on wheat crackers, also pasta and a hot cup of herbal tea. This food comforts my soul! Big Hugs!!!

Okay Delicious people!! You guys have my mouth watering all over my computer!!! MY GOODNESS with all these delightful crabs all of us are going to fall into a deep sleep and wake up with super fat thighs!! he he he he he! Seriously you guys are the best!

Hmmmm, so hard, my current favorite is Indian Butter Chicken over raw spinach, yummmmmmm and avacado's blended with cocoa and dates, it's like a decadent super creamy pudding that's food for the brain ;) Now I have to go and make some!

I love this book so much and followed a tweet to discover you... loving your art while I am lingering!!! My favorite comfort food has to be custard... warm custard and baked apples, warm custard on ice-cream... just custard!!! Love it!!!

Vanessa, I wish I can cook pansit for you. Maybe someday when I return to South Carolina, I will make a batch and gather my family and we wil drive to Charlotte and we can all meet. I dream about that sometimes.

Well Thank you Miss Vanessa :DFor stopping by at my Secret Corner and your lovely words...it means a lot.I haven't seen ur recipe before over at TDAC but had a look and it's awesome!!!I love it! :D Ur colours are amazing too...Ant

oooh im pregnant so food is constantly on my mind at the moment haha!! what a great contest! My favourite comfort food would have to be a chunky veggie soup in the middle of a cold stormy day!! The first food that came to mind was chocolate but I don't think of that as a comfort food anymore but more of a necessity!!! :) Great to stop by your blog again it always makes me smile!!

This may sound crazy to some but my comfort foods are grits with over easy eggs mixed in so the yolks turn them yellow with a little salt and pepper or a big bowl of oatmeal with hot buttered toast mmmmm heaven:-) Congratulations for being featured good job.

Oh, I am ALL about comfort food. The problem I am having is picking just one. I'll pick the one that popped into my head first: mashed potatoes. lol! SOOOO dietetic. LOVE the book and adore the print! I am going to keep my tater-covered fingers crossed! xox Pam

I love a grilled cheese sandwich, with the toast thick and buttery and the cheese, sharp and tangy. Now cut it in half and dip that in some thick tomato basil soup, and as you take a bite, a tiny bit of the soup and cheese drip lusciously down your chin. Yum!!!Hungry yet?

Ohhh a COLD Ring ding! hee hee chocolate goodness with cream! and a BIG Mountain size Cup of Joe! Yum! Okay that is it! oh and maybe about 1000 cookies. Always have room for Oreos and Big glass of milk to dunk it into. AH!!!!Yay me I'll just slap it all on my thighs. hee hee. Well you asked! :D Congrats to you! you are a beautiful person and it shows in all you do! Great idea for your site. Best of luck always! :D

Love that chef!! To name a tiny fraction of my favorite comfort foods: banana fritters, falafel sandwiches, shepherd's pie, just about any Ethiopian dish, grilled cheese sandwich with tomato soup, all things potato, Szechuan orange chicken... And I'll have all of your illustrations for dessert. :)

Hi Nester!! How awesome is your sweet chef girl..and you are SO right. TDAC has been an amazing site and Nate and Salli are two fabulous and generous people. Congratulations on being in the book..your recipe is awesome!! I also wanted to say Happy belated Birthday to Zoe..yay for the 11 year olds! I wish her a super year ahead. Hope you and yours have been well - we are back from an amazing holiday and it just really did a lot for me. : ) Big hugs!

I have so many! My grandma's Spanish Goulash (made with Mac & Cheese), Cornbread, Gooseberry Pie, Fried Chicken and Mashed Potatoes, Homemade Bread and Jam, and those Corndogs covered with Mustard that you get at the fair! I'm getting so hungry just thinking about all my favorites. I'd better stop now!
